[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@BryanMorera @NVIDIAGeForce I refreshed right at 9:00am on Bestbuy. Everything sold out except for msi ventus edition. I clicked add to cart. Took me to checkout, when I clicked checkout it then said it was already sold out. Bullshit.. gave me false hopes... must of been bots, I was on it real quick too

@Anthrax809 @gameical @SpaceCowboy207 @SChen1029 @teessro All good dude. Thats the beauty of being human and having different perspectives on art. I have no idea why the Mona Lisa is a masterpiece... but its considered one of Da Vinci’s greatest work. To some of us Lou2 is a masterpiece, and for others they can’t even fathom why it is.

@TAlfanator @teessro How many famous musical artists were initially denied record deals because those labels didnt believe in their work? The Beatles, U2, Linkin Park... Neil believed in his work and persevered even knowing the backlash he would receive. True artists believe n carry out their vision.

@DavidLo30117081 @teessro @Higeredivy Abby. Jin wasn’t really as compelling for me. I just wanted GoT to be finished and rushed near the end. If I didn’t play Tlou2 before it, I may have liked GoT more... although I still enjoyed it’s combat. But GoT characters felt too hollow for me after playing tlou2.

@Anthrax809 @SpaceCowboy207 @teessro Yeah, our minds are so ingrained with that fan service storytelling. No denying that its good and it works... but I’m glad this game flipped that. I can get my fan service stories from thousands of other content. This one was unique and masterfully told.

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@Anthrax809 @teessro Joel was killed to evoke rage. That was purposeful and intentional to service the story and present us the challenge of emphathizing with the most hated antagonist ever introduced in a video game. The whole design of the story would not of worked if Joel died as fan service.

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@Omnistalgic @teessro Ever introduced in a video game. And for the ones that came around to that conclusion, this was absolutely a masterclass storytelling for them. This game’s storytelling was unique, and I couldn’t imagine it done any other way. Neil is ballsy and an absolute legend!

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@Omnistalgic @teessro Beloved protagonist. It was specifically designed to happen early in the game to evoke the rage inducing emotions. Some people lets that emotion consume them for the rest of the game, while others came to understand all perspectives and forgive the most hated antagonist that was

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@Omnistalgic @teessro Because fan service series are generic. I would say 99% of game or movie series are fan service. You can get those same feels from all those other options. This flipped that and challenged you to try to understand the antagonist that EVERYONE initially hated by killing our main

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA Good to know

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA To serve the chracter. And other people appreciate it the other way around too, that the characters service the story. No one is smarter or dumber for liking or disliking this game. Its purely subjective.

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA The game is a deep character study. Doesn’t have to have mind bending themes or convoluted plot lines to be deep. The greatest cinema masterpieces have just a few strong basic themes. The problem that is divisive is that this wasn’t a fan service sequel. Some people want stories

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA Wow thanks for spoiling the game... Just got death stranding for the PC about a week ago. Wife and I started playing it. Only about 4 hours in but its weird as hell. Still enjoying it so far.

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA I absolutely loved Nier Automata. Of course Tlou2 is not like that... it's a totally different game. What's the point in comparing those two?

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA Lmfao. Your basing an opinion over liking a video game to IQ? I actually have a certified IQ score of 123. Far from an intellectual prodigy, but a decent high score regardless. I don't understand why you're so angry over my opinion while being condescending and extremely rude.

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA gaming. It excites me to see cinema quality in our actors and the visual department. I absolutely loved the story too. You absolutely hated and are clearly angry over it. Its okay dude. To each their own. No one is stupid or dumb for liking or disliking a game. Art is subjective.

[Sam Yoon @SYoon615]

@_kato93 @SomeAdamGuy52 @TroyBakerVA Wow dang man... chill. There's a lot of anger in your tone towards the game. It's cool if you didn't like it. The themes are wide open for everyone to understand. It's not a hard story to get. But the performance, acting, and facial animation was by far the best I have seen in
